Our Stores

Baltzar has not always been an online retailer. For many years, the stores were the only locations where Baltzar menswear was to be found. Since 2014 the online platform has welcomed two new friends, both of whom's dedication has been to align the traditional values of bricks and mortar stores with the convenience of online shopping. The Baltzar concept includes a variety of exclusive services. Beyond home-delivery, we offer click and collect: pick up your order in one of our stores for tryout and fitting. If it doesn't fit, you can return it on the spot.

Ortigni

Handmade in Italy since 1930

Ortigni is an Italian shoe manufacturer based in the small town of Pistoria just outside Florence. The company is renowned for making some of the best shoes in Italy, ever since they started back in 1930.

Each pair is handcrafted with the utmost attention to detail, using only the finest leather, perfected by skilled craftsmen with decades of experience. All shoes are made to the highest technical standard, namely with Goodyear welting, which enables the shoes to be built to pass the test of time.

Goodyear welt construction involves stitching a welt to the upper and a strip of canvas to the insole as an attach-point for the sole. The space enclosed by the welt is then filled with cork, and the sole is both cemented and stitched to the welt.
